Chapter 375: Murals

Thinking back to what I had just seen underwater, I realized that the humming sound coming from the darkness was actually the sound of large bubbles squeezing out of the cracks.

The octopus hands and sea vegetables floating in the well also floated out along the cracks.

The source of the food is not a raw well, but an underground rift that connects to the meteorite veins.

Didn't the man say that there was nothing in the cracks, and since there was nothing, where did this endless supply of food come from?

Since I didn't have professional diving equipment, I couldn't dive into the deep rift to see it, so I had to leave it at that.

There seems to be no substantial gain from this downhole, but in fact there are two quite important findings.

The first is the hint given by the man, the friendship of yin and yang, very close to the underworld.

Secondly, the illusion that emerged around the rift, and the effect of the humming sound on the soul, all confirmed one thing, that is, there was a deep connection between the whispers of the deep sea and the iron veins in the sea market.

Combining the ability of the rift to create an environment, and the ability of civilization to influence souls, is the ability to whisper in the depths.

There is nothing wrong with the meteorite itself, what is problematic is the evil qi attached to it.

After thinking about this, I feel that I am very close to the true face of the King in Yellow.

After leaving Ikui, I turned around and headed straight for the Ship Hall, one of the two sacred sites of the underground city.

I had seen the boat hall at the west end of the city more than half a day before, but at the time I had only briefly glanced at it and not taken it seriously.

The so-called ship hall is actually a large wooden ship upside down in shallow water, the volume of the ship is enough to be the size of three Iron Lady, although the keel has shown signs of breaking, but the entire hull is still relatively intact, and the wood used to make the hull has no signs of decay.

When I saw this ship at that time, I thought it was a stranded ship left over before the establishment of the new city, and it was not until I learned from the drunkards that there was such a boat hall at the west end of the city, and I instantly reacted to this big ship that was upside down in the water, and it was one of the two holy places in the eyes of the residents.

When I approached the hall with my backpack on my shoulder, I happened to come across a group of armored soldiers walking towards the hall.

These soldiers looked similar to the guards guarding the well, and the armor on their bodies was similar, but on their bodies, they all exuded a faint corpse aura.

There is only corpse gas, no corpse transformation.

It reminds me of the Black Fire that I caught in the sewers earlier, and the cultist who caught it with the centipede.

In these two people, they also carried corpse energy, but there was no corpse transformation, until the ghost possessed their bodies, the poison of the poison finger worm was stimulated, and they changed from living people to evil corpses.

I followed the team into the cabin, only to find that the entire cabin was filled with corpse gas.

Here, the light mist floating in the air has also changed, it is no longer as transparent as clear water, but you can clearly see the fog slowly swimming.

I stopped, waited for the soldiers to go away, and only when they were some distance away from me did I move my feet and lean towards the wall.

As soon as I entered the cabin, I noticed that the wooden walls here were carved with a large number of frescoes.

The boat is upside down in the water, but the wood murals are positive, which means that all the murals are carved on the wall after the ship has been turned over.

My guess is that the craftsman who carved these frescoes was a veteran who was particularly skilled, and that everything carved was very detailed, and that the carving techniques of the European Renaissance and the artistic temperament of that generation were evident.

If the craftsman was really a Renaissance man, the ship would have existed for a longer period of time than the sea market.

A closer look at the murals here reveals that they tell a whole story.

Putting aside all the atmosphere rendering and plot shaping, the content of the story is actually very simple.

Thousands of years ago, the King in Yellow predicted that the world would come to an end, so he went to the deep sea and established such a shelter.

The original sanctuary was just a reef mountain in the middle of the inland sea, and it was not until a few prophets came here and established a city here that the sanctuary took full shape.

Originally, the King of Yellow had planned for the prophets to summon all the good people to the shelter, but at this moment, the demons at the bottom of the sea awakened.

In order to protect the shelter, the King of Yellow travels to the bottom of the sea to fight the demons.

After hundreds of years of hard fighting, the King of Yellow finally defeated the demon and sealed it forever in the deepest part of the ocean floor.

But when the King of Yellow returned to the shelter, he found that the end had come, and the old shelter had been sealed underground, and the inhabitants of the underground still maintained the essence of goodness, and those who lived on the surface had long been polluted by evil.

In order to protect all the good people, the King of Yellow cut off the connection between the surface and the underworld, and remained in the underworld, sheltering its inhabitants forever.

When the aftermath of the apocalypse has passed, and the evil people have been baptized with goodness again, the King of Yellow will open the barrier and let the underworld return to the surface world.

In the mural, the king in yellow is a giant in a cloak, and the demon is a sea serpent lurking underwater.

At the same time, the mural also uses English heresy, and the king in yellow injects his spiritual charm into the minds of every good people, so that good people can hear their voices anytime and anywhere.

In this way, whenever the good people are polluted by evil, the King in Yellow will use his magnetic voice to protect the good people, tell them the truth about the world, and give them enough strength to fight evil.

In other words, every "good citizen" here can hear the whispers of the King in Yellow.

At this point, I can't tell if the whisper of the King in Yellow is the whisper of the deep sea that I heard earlier, but whether it is or not, there is a great connection between the two.

Reading the murals on the walls repeatedly, I finally came up with a way to control this floor.

At that time, my eyes were on the sea serpent that was molded as a "demon", this snake, which is the evil that is opposed to good.

What I want to do is to reshape the perception of evil.

It's not too difficult for me, who can also use whispers to influence the good people, but there are two additional conditions that need to be met to achieve the goal of completely controlling the underworld.

First of all, I need a couple of people of high enough social status to support me.

Secondly, the king in yellow must die.

As for whether I can kill the king in yellow, to be honest, I don't know in my own heart.

If you are not sure if you can do it, let's do what we are sure to do, find a few high-status people, and incorporate them.
